Mort Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 On my E6 350 the Dynatard is not very effective. This is the only one I've used so i don't know what to expect but it is at best 20% of a Maxi Brake. Is this normal or should I be looking at something. The tappets have been done recently and that made no difference. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/35849-dynatard-settings/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
gearhead204 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 don't expect a dynatard to do much except change the sound of the exhaust. with 80,000 load it equates to throwing a small block chevy out behind you on a chain. ok its not that bad but close what a mack dynatard does in most cases is, it keeps you from going any faster Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/35849-dynatard-settings/#findComment-246757 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solution gearhead204 Posted May 25, 2014 Solution Share Posted May 25, 2014 mort how heavy are you running? if you are used to a cummins you will never be happy with the dynatard. however if you are used to a 3406 b model cat with the first pac brake then its almost close Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/35849-dynatard-settings/#findComment-246763 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mort Posted May 25, 2014 Author Share Posted May 25, 2014 I'm comparing it to a cummins. You have answered the question. Just got to use more brakes. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/35849-dynatard-settings/#findComment-246765 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrsmackpaul Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Mort that all sounds about right to me sounds the part only just more for dropping revs quick with a five or six speed Paul Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/35849-dynatard-settings/#findComment-246766 Share on other sites More sharing options...
